Detailed Description
Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example embodiments may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the concept of example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The described features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
Furthermore, the drawings are merely schematic illustrations of the present disclosure and are not necessarily drawn to scale. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar parts, and thus their repetitive description will be omitted. Some of the block diagrams shown in the figures are functional entities and do not necessarily correspond to physically or logically separate entities. These functional entities may be implemented in the form of software, or in one or more hardware circuits or integrated circuits, or in different networks and/or processor means and/or microcontroller means.
Fig. 1 shows a schematic structure diagram of a mura compensation scheme in the related art.
As shown in fig. 1, a Mura compensation scheme in the related art includes a display screen 101, an XPCB (X Printed Circuit Board of the display screen) 102, a CPCB (Control Printed Circuit Board) 103, an FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit Board) 104, and a Mura elimination Circuit (may also be referred to as a De-Mura Circuit) 105.
In the related art, the De-Mura circuit 105 is integrated on the XPCB 102 of the display panel, since the Mura defect of the display panel needs to be confirmed by lighting, and the XPCB 102 is already connected with the display screen 101 before lighting, that is, the XPCB 102 cannot be replaced after the display panel is manufactured, which brings a disadvantage that once the De-Mura function needs to be enabled, the De-Mura circuit 105 can only be pasted on the XPCB 102 in batch. Thus, it is a waste of cost to mount the De-Mura circuit 105 on the XPCB of the display panel found to have no Mura failure after the lighting test.
On the other hand, if mass mounting is not performed on the XPCB 102, when a lighting test finds that a certain display panel has Mura defect, and then the De-Mura circuit 105 is soldered to the display panel having Mura defect by a manual soldering method, time and labor are wasted, and a large functional risk exists, so that the method has no mass productivity.
It should be noted that the PCB in the embodiments of the present disclosure may refer to a PCBA (printed Circuit board assembly), that is, a PCB blank board is subjected to SMT (Surface Mount Technology) loading and then to a DIP (dual inline-pin package) package, which is called as PCBA for short.

The optical extraction type is to extract a luminance signal of a display panel by taking a picture of the display panel through an optical CCD (Charge-coupled Device). The optical extraction method has the advantages of simple structure and flexible method, namely the method is called De-Mura. The term Mura originates from japan, originally meaning uneven brightness, and then extends to any color difference on the panel that is recognizable to the human eye.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, an AOI (automatic optical inspection) device is used to perform Mura detection, and compensation is performed after Mura is detected to eliminate Mura, that is, De-Mura.
First, a driving chip in the display panel lights up the panel and displays a plurality of frames (generally, gray scales or RGB). Then, the lighting image is obtained by taking the above-mentioned picture using a high-resolution and high-precision CCD camera.
The CCD camera with high precision and high resolution is generally adopted when the detection picture is shot, and the selection of the camera resolution depends on the resolution, the size and the shooting distance of the detected panel and the precision of De-Mura compensation. The data obtained by the camera is XYZ, so that subsequent calculations are based on XYZ data obtained by photographing with the camera.
